Americana - пятый студийный альбом американской панк-рок-группы The Offspring, релиз которого состоялся 17 ноября 1998 года. Группа приступила к работе над альбомом во время мирового тура в поддержку их предыдущего альбома Ixnay on the Hombre (1997). Музыка из альбома претерпела изменения: звук стал богаче, добавилось больше элементов поп-панка.

The Best of the Moody Blues is a compilation album by the progressive rock band the Moody Blues, released on 28 January 1997. The album was also the Moody Blues' first compilation album to feature "Go Now", a song recorded in 1964 with then lead singer Denny Laine, who was replaced by Justin Hayward shortly after.

I like this recording, although not as much as the official soundtracks. These arrangements are not those heard in the film, but redone by one of the composers (Coppola, d.1991). That's not necessarily a bad thing, however. On the bright side, it includes many songs not found on the standard soundtracks, including some found in The Godfather's Family Wedding Album, which is perhaps the best of all the Godfather soundtracks.

International version features a completely different and expanded track listing to the US Millennium Collection. This version also features three bonus tracks over the Canadian version, 'Got This Feeling' and two covers, 'World Without Love' & 'Are You Lonesome Tonight'. Fusing traditional country with traditional rock & roll, The Mavericks became one of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful groups of the early '90s. Led by singer/songwriter Raul Malo, the band was formed in Florida in the late '80s. 15 tracks in all. Universal.

Those the Brokes is the second album from The Magic Numbers. The album was partly recorded in New York at Allaire Studios in Spring 2006, a venue which has also been used in the past by David Bowie, The Strokes and Ryan Adams, and was recorded and engineered by Richard Wilkinson.

The Magic Numbers is the self-titled debut album from The Magic Numbers. It was nominated for a Mercury Music Prize in 2005. Songwriting duties were taken by Romeo Stodart as was much of the musical composition and arrangement. It incorporated the earlier single release of "Hymn for Her" as a hidden track. The album incorporates many folk elements within the main indie sound which resounds throughout. The album also reflects many elements of the writers early childhood dreams, tales of their love life and desperation of youth. For example, "Love Me Like You", the best known single of the album, illustrates the difference of feeling in their love for each other.

Fingerprints on discs is very `off-putting`to say the least. My enjoyment of the music almost automatically get reduced because of it. I get a lot less `lust` to put this kind of disc into my tray. (When I buy new CDs it will forever stay in a near mint `condition` because I take good care of my music, pride and pleasure is a good combo for CDs.) Thank you and all the best, Snorre Fjær.

In 1981, trumpeter Wynton Marsalis and saxophonist Branford Marsalis burst on the scene as the young lions who started a jazz renaissance. They were followed by their younger brothers, trombonist Delfeayo and drummer Jason. Incredible as it sounds, they’ve never recorded together as a family. On August 4, 2001, at the University of New Orleans, they performed with their father, the esteemed pianist and educator Ellis Marsalis in a concert that marked his retirement from the school’s jazz department. Supported by bassist Roland Guerin, the family delivers a swinging live program of standards and original works in trio, quartet, and sextet combinations. The elder Marsalis’s pristine pianism colors his midtempo tune “Swingin’ at the Haven,” while Jason Marsalis’s Afro-tinged intro peppers the standard “The Surrey with the Fringe on Top.” Wynton and Branford declare their brotherly love on the saxophonist’s Ornette Coleman-esque “Cain and Abel.” Actor-singer-pianist Harry Connick Jr. joins in on the fun with “Twelve’s It” and “St. James Infirmary.”
